A trademark or service mark is form of intellectual property which can attach to a mark, which may be any word, name, symbol, device, or any combination, that is used or intended to be used as a unique source identifier for the goods/services of one seller or provider. A trademark right may attach to a mark upon its use in commerce as a unique source identifier. Registration of a trademark with a jurisdictional authority typically confers additional advantages which may broaden the scope of the right or assist in enforcement of the right.
